Die meisten Reisenden besuchen Portugal wegen seiner Sandstrände, Felsküsten und Sportmöglichkeiten. Doch abseits der Badeparadiese gibt es wenig bekannte, wilde Schönheiten, historische Städte und idyllische Dörfer. Hier finden Sie umfassende Informationen für jedes Vorhaben: von einem familiengeführten Hotel mit Privatbibliothek in Lissabon über traditionelle Restaurants in Guarda bis zu Festivals für klassische Musik und Tanz in Sintra. Lissabon wird mit einem detaillierten Stadtplan behandelt, während Madeira und die Azoren auf 40 Seiten vorgestellt werden. Wichtige Sehenswürdigkeiten wie der Palácio da Pena in Sintra, Santa Maria de Vitória in Batalha und die Universität in Coimbra werden mit Aufrisszeichnungen erläutert. Outdooraktivitäten wie Segeln, Kanufahren, Paragliding, Höhlentouren, Klettern und Walbeobachtung werden ebenfalls empfohlen. Der Relaunch des Reiseführers bietet ein klareres Design und ein herausnehmbares Mini-Kochbuch mit typischen Gerichten. Die Themen- und Tagestouren wurden erweitert, und die Hotel- und Restaurant-Listen sind neu strukturiert und bebildert. Exzellente Abbildungen, wie exakte Schnittzeichnungen und Stadtpläne, erleichtern die Orientierung. Der Praxisteil enthält aktuelle Informationen zu Hotels, Restaurants, Shopping, Nachtleben, Verkehrsmitteln und Öffnungszeiten.

Lisbon's gentle pace and almost provincial feeling belie its position as one of Europe's most Cosmopolitan cities. This guide begins by showing the reader the traditional life of the city's historic neighbourhoods, then goes on to review the most contemporary bars and nightspots.
